The opening of the first Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge expansion in Disneyland, California, is just a few months away, and for any fans still looking for reasons to be pumped for the new region, Disney has released a whole load of details about the area and its many features.
At the Droid Depot, for instance, visitors can construct their own astromech droids with various parts and colors that will be able to interact with elements of the land. Similarly, the guests can build their own custom weapons at Savi’s Workshop – Handbuilt Lightsabers in what Disney describes as a “mystical experience.”
Meanwhile, at Dok-Ondar’s Den of Antiquities, guests will find a selection of mysterious items for sale representing different eras of the Star Wars galaxy, including holocrons, and ancient Jedi and Sith artifacts, while the Toydarian Toymaker stall offers toys crafted by a member of Watto’s species.
Then you have Resistance Supply, which sells various Resistance accessories that will make guests “feel like part of the cause,” and alternatively, there’s First Order Cargo, where you can purchase pins, caps, gear, model ships, and more from the other side of the fight.
Visitors feeling like a drink, however, can go to Oga’s Cantina, where they can try exotic beverages served in unique vessels while listening to the music of former Starspeeder 3000 pilot droid DJ R- 3X. Moreover, guests will have the option of eating at Docking Bay 7 Food, where Chef Strono “Cookie” Tuggs “moves from site to site in a modified Sienar-Chall Utilipede-Transport that becomes a mobile kitchen and restaurant.” On top of that, you have the Black Spire Outpost market, where a large podracing engine fires up a barbecue pit, and even a Milk Stand that serves both blue and green milk.
Whew, all that and we haven’t even mentioned the area’s two major rides yet. If this sounds like your kind of place, then you can check out Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge when it opens in Disneyland in Anaheim, California, in June, before coming to Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida, in the fall.
